Ok, I want to play too. See the TW thread for my debacle with DH. So, I need girls names! I have a particular style and DH is very picky. DD's name is Eloise, so it needs to go with that. Last name is 10 letters and 4 syllables, starts with P and ends with I, and is one of those obnoxious crazy Polish names.
Colette (DH all of a sudden doesn't like it) Cecilia (IMO, too many syllables to go with our last name) Noelle (This is probably my favorite on its own, but too similar to DD, who often goes by Elle) Amalie (this one is ok) Vivian/Vivienne (too popular) Clara (DH doesn't like)
Hit me with some ideas!

@canonmom413 I like Charlotte but it has been dibs-ed by SIL (not married, and no kids on the way), and it is not worth the drama that would follow if we used it.

@carries2018 in general, probably not, but I personally know three little girls/babies named Vivian or Vivienne.
Cecilia (with the nn cece) was on our list with DD. It is DH's favorite by a landslide. I do really like it, but for some reason it seems too long for the last name. Weird question - do you think it is 3 or 4 syllables? If you can convince me that it is only 3, I might be on board. Lol.

@beezeemarie I love your list! We've basically decided on Vivian for LO if it's a girl. DH is a teacher and he's never had one so it's an automatic win! I also don't know anyone young with that name, which is why I love it.
Of course.. Charlotte apparently means petite and feminine and we often call our Charlotte Charzilla because she's a bit of a beast... so much for meanings of names.
@TallMomma29 I noticed that about Cecilia too. Although, Eloise means "healthy" or "wide", so I'm not sure that's any better. Funny too because DD is super tiny.

A mom on my last BMB named her #2 Viviana. I think that's really pretty.
I have a student named Amelie (pronounced Emily) and her oldest sister is Elyse. Middle sister? Lauren. I find it such a strange pairing, Lauren with Amelie and Elyse. All very nice girls, though.
I do agree that Vivian is popular right now. I know two little girls under 4 months named Vivian.

I wish I could get DH on board with Susannah, Rosemary, or Louisa. He's no fun.

@jessafishy I love Louisa. There's a little girl at DD's daycare named Louisa, and they call her Lulu. Another name we can't use because it's too similar to DD's name. All the names I love incorporate the same sounds, making it difficult.

@beezeemarie If I used it I would DEFINITELY be using Lulu as a nickname.

@jessafishy, seriously, it's the cutest. She's DD's BFF, and she's always talking about "Lulu." Like, I need to come up with a name that correlates with Lulu as a nn.

I have to go to work in a bit... I fully plan on pulling up the attendance sheets/class lists and making a check list. I can check off kids who annoy me or their parents annoy me when they come in to the studio, and I can add cute kids who are nothing by rays of sunshine.
not anything on my list but some cute little girl names on the 2-6 year old classes lists:
Ayla Bristol Cute Adeline This one was on my short list last time Alaina Liliana sups cute but I have a niece who is Lillie Harper Almost was Aspen's name Cecelia cute Maura Like the mom off of Hook? I sorta like that, adding to my list of girls Emilia- goes by Millie Love! I have an Amelia on my list but never thought of Millie as a nn Lorelai Eliana Mila Piper cute Stella cute Catarina makes me think of Daniel Tiger Annabelle Delia How is this pronounced? Holland Really unique, I'm liking this one too!
@carries2018 its intimidating AF! I mean this is what this human will be called all their lives. What really catches me is what if the name doesn't match their personality?
